First single crystal X-ray diffraction studies of polymerized KC60 and RbC60 are presented. While powder diffraction studies showed no definite structural differences, the single crystal diffraction data analysis reveals different relative…

The polymer phases of AC60 form distinct crystal structures characterized by the mutual orientations of the (C60-)n chains. We show that the direct electric quadrupole interaction between chains always favors the orthorhombic structure Pmnn…

Starting from a model of rigid interacting C60 polymer chains on an orthorhombic lattice, we study the mutual orientation of the chains and the stability of the crystalline structures Pmnn and I2/m. We take into account i) van der Waals…

The infrared- and Raman-active vibrational modes of C60 were measured in the various structural states of Rb1C60. According to earlier studies, Rb1C60 has an $fcc$ structure at temperatures above ~100C, a linear chain polymer orthorhombic…

We report the results of a high-resolution synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction study of polymerised CsC$_{60}$ in the temperature range 4 to 40 K. Its crystal structure is monoclinic (space group I2/m), isostructural with RbC$_{60}$. Below…

The recently discovered structural transition in polymerized KC60 at about 50 K results in a doubling of the unit cell volume and accompanies the metal-insulator transition. Here we show that the (a+c,b,a-c) superstructure results from…

The liquid, plastic crystalline and ordered crystalline phases of CBr$_4$ were studied using neutron powder diffraction. The measured total scattering differential cross-sections were modelled by Reverse Monte Carlo simulation techniques…

Li4C60, one of the best representatives of lithium intercalated fullerides, features a novel type of 2D polymerization. Extensive investigations, including laboratory x-ray and synchrotron radiation diffraction, 13C NMR, MAS and Raman…

Optical measurements on doped C$_{60}$ films provide evidence for a transition from a high temperature conducting phase to a low temperature insulating phase in quenched Rb$_1$C$_{60}$ and K$_1$C$_{60}$ compounds, while Cs$_1$C$_{60}$ did…

We present detailed calculations of the diffraction pattern of a powder of bundles of C$_{60}$ peapods. The influence of all pertinent structural parameters of the bundles on the diffraction diagram is discussed, which should lead to a…

We observe, with angle-resolved photoemission, a dramatic change in the electronic structure of two C60 monolayers, deposited respectively on Ag (111) and (100) substrates, and similarly doped with potassium to half-filling of the C60…

133Cs and 13C-NMR have been used to study the electronic properties of the polymerized phase of CsC60 at ambient and under hydrostatic pressure. The salient result of this study is the finding of fluctuations in the local field at 133Cs…

We study the diffusion of a linear polymer in the presence of permeable membranes without excluded volume interactions, using scaling theory and Monte Carlo simulations. We find that the average time it takes for a chain with polymerization…

A theoretical study proposes the atomic configuration of electron-beam irradiated C$_{60}$ thin films. We examined the electronic structure and electron-transport properties of the C$_{60}$ clusters using density-functional calculations and…

Optical measurements were performed on thin films of Rb$_{x}$C$_{60}$, identified by X-ray diffraction as mostly $x=1$ material. The samples were subjected to various heat treatments, including quenching and slow cooling from 400K. The…

A neutron powder diffraction study has been carried out on Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 in order to resolve an ongoing controversy about the nature of the low-temperature structure of this strongly-piezoelectric and technologically-important…

Polymer-like structures are ubiquitous in nature and synthetic materials. Their configurational and migration properties are often affected by crowded environments leading to non-thermal fluctuations. Here, we study an ideal Rouse chain in…

Variations in the band structures of C60-polymers are studied, when conjugation conditions and the electron number are changed. We use a semiempirical model with the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger type electron-phonon interactions. In the neutral…

Synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction measurements have been performed on unpoled ceramic samples of (1-x)PbMg(1/3)Nb(2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 (PMN-xPT) with 30%<= x<= 39% as a function of temperature around the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB),…

The low-temperature crystal structure of BaCuSi2O6 has been investigated with high-resolution synchrotron x-ray and neutron powder diffraction techniques and has been found to be on average (ignoring the incommensurate modulation)…
